Abstract excerpt

Homozygosity for apolipoprotein-L1 (APOL1) risk variants has emerged as an important predictor of renal disease in individuals of African descent over the past several years. Additionally, these risk variants may be important predictors of renal allograft failure when present in a living or deceased donor. Currently, there is no universal recommendation for screening of potential donors. We present a case of...
